I am going to become the joker www.nytimes.com/2024/07/03/u...

Writing for the NYT requires either having or pretending to have a degree of gullibility that could not occur in the wild

For the wallet inspector, the question is what is the bigger threat: you running your wallet and chain or you retaining possession of both

You ever see one of those dailywire+ cartoons? They always have some character (or 10) that are like "My pronouns are glib and bloop and i'm having you arrested for mis-gendering!!" The Supreme Court actually believes that shit is real

Didn't one of them cite the school litterboxes trope in some recent decision?

For the conservatives the threat is an imaginary something that isn't happening, but to admit that would be to admit they are lunatics in a cult worshiping a moron who is a sociopath and serial criminal

in many ways nighttime is like a rorschach test, revealing where you think the sun goes when it’s not visibly in the sky.

Much like the ruling itself, I knew it was coming but I'm still shocked that it happened. On Monday CNN could only ask the question "how does this ruling impact the race".

NYT: All Bad Faith Arguments All the Time

What evidence is there that there are even partisan prosecutions?! What a load of horse shit.

Not to mention that SCOTUS just made it easier for presidents to go after political rivals!

The only partisan prosecution was of Hunter Biden, and conservatives had no issues with that.

Ah yes, the threat of partisan prosecution, say from a candidate who based his whole campaign on locking up his rival?

“ceaseless partisan prosecutions” is one thing this ruling specifically allows! It explicitly says telling the DOJ what to prosecute and who to target is untouchable presidential power!

I was raised with this belief in the fundamental trustworthiness of a certain kind of important man and absolutely understand that people of privilege still believe that.

Only a certain kind of man. Women try to gain that kind of benefit of the doubt but rarely do. Performative whiteness is also required

A 10th grader wrote that sentence.

anyone who was genuinely this gullible would be immediately scammed out of every last dollar that they have and then one by one each of their organs

That’s owned by #EvilMurdoch, isn’t it? Isn’t it just right what he and Lachlan want you to write, no questions asked or you don’t get paid? The 21st-century equivalent to making a deal with the devil.

How many times were we told the Supreme Court was not meant to consider the implications of their decisions?

Plus narcissism

“Clashing Views on the Nature of Politics” or “Checks and Balances: Who Needs ‘Em?”

US Presidents have mass murdered millions of innocent people, war crimes that got the Nazis hanged at Nuremberg, and no so-called "liberal" here has ever cared at all. They ARE the Nazis.

Times 1910: “In southern lynching, two sides to the story”

NYT doing a shit job convincing us that liberals aren't actually just one day away from going full Republican.
